Szabolcs Attila Saskoy Eliminated in 41st Place (€6,834)

Szabolcs Attila Saskoy - 41st Place
Szabolcs Attila Saskoy - 41st Place
Our second exit was a touch more controversial than our first. Szabolcs Attila Saskoy moved all in for the second time in three hands, and this time he was called by Alexander Kravchenko.

Saskoy: {A-Clubs} {7-Clubs}
Kravchenko: {A-Spades} {K-Spades}

Board: {2-Clubs} {2-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}

The stacks were counted (Kravchenko had 105,000 and Saskoy looked to have around the same) and it was decided that Saskoy had 5,000 more than Kravchenko. The game continued and Sasko moved all in for his one big blind the very next hand -- but at this point Kravchenko piped up that he was missing some chips. Various tournament directors were called over, the maths was recalculated and it was decided that Kravchenko had indeed been short-changed, Saskoy didn't have any chips behind after all, and his hand was mucked and he walked away taking 41st place money with him.
